AGENDA

Relocating to Belgium with a family

21/11/2024
11.45 - 14.00
This in-person seminar is free to access. Register before Friday 15 November.

Moving to Belgium with a family can be a real challenge. From finding accommodation and a suitable school for your children to discovering the activities and leisure facilities available and all the administrative formalities involved in your arrival, it's often difficult to find your way around in a new environment.

This seminar will help you understand the key characteristics of the Belgian and international school system, explore childcare options for the very young and discover the many activities and courses on offer for children throughout the year.

We'll also look at the practicalities of insurance, to help you decide which policies may be essential for your family, such as home, car, bike and pet insurance, as well as legal protection.

Join us for a session of discussion and practical advice to help you and your family settle in Belgium!
